    My husband’s immediate response: “what about all the men who have licked the salt lamp before me?”

    spoiler

    It’s extra funny because he didn’t care about how much of a ho I was.

    my grandma used to have one in the back of a fireplace to make it look pretty. I asked her what it was and she said a salt lamp. I was a dumb kid so OBVIOUSLY I needed to know what it tasted like. When she wasn’t around I crawled back there and took a lick. What I didn’t account for is that it would be covered in ash and dust and my tongue would just be covered in that instead.

    Good times.

    Make sure you wrap your licker! You don’t know how many unwrapped licker people have licked that Himalayan salt lamp before you! Or even which animals! You could end up with … Dry Tongue!

    Now I’m going to have intrusive thoughts about licking Himalayan salt lamps. What does it taste like? Does the light change flavor?? What do moths think of Himalayan salt lamps???

      I tried licking those lamps and also licking straight up Himalayan salt blocks. They don’t taste any different from regular salt to me. The prevailing flavor is salt.

          Tajin makes everything better!

          Now I want tajin watermelon. Speaking of which, if you’ve never tried putting salt on watermelon, it’s delicious. Somehow brings out the sweetness and juiciness.

            Am Mexican, love putting salt or tajin on everything, maybe with some chamoy.

            Mango, pineapple, apples, grapes, almost any fruit with tajin with/without chamoy is mouth watering. Never really just done just salt, I always add lime or lime/lemon salt if I don’t want spice.

    I saw this post a few years ago and that’s why I licked my friend’s himylayan salt lamp a few years ago, officer
